The long haul

Biking for blackberries! Only this was Meryl’s first real bike ride off our neighborhood block. She borrowed a non-gear bike (much like her own) and faced the challenges of gravel roads and lots of rolling hills (read, not flat pavement). There were emotions, there were doubts…and there were blackberries! (And she doesn’t even like blackberries that much, ha!) She did it! She was so proud of herself, in the end:)
